Agricultural production methods that rely on natural rainfall. (Translated from CNTERM. 2024. CHINESE TERMS IN AGRONOMY 2024. https://www.cnterm.cn/news/tzgg/202407/P020250909517921360798.pdf)
Traditional fisheries involving fishing households (as opposed to commercial companies), using relatively small amount of capital and energy, relatively small fishing vessels (if any), making short fishing trips, close to shore, mainly for local consumption. (FAO. 1999. Guidelines for the Routine Collection of Capture Fishery Data. Glossary. https://www.fao.org/4/x2465e/x2465e0h.htm)
Note
In practice, definition varies between countries, e.g. from gleaning or a one-man canoe in poor developing countries, to more than 20 m trawlers, seiners, or long-liners in developed ones. A comparative analysis of the definition of artisanal fisheries in each country shows that three criteria are the most commonly used: length, gross tonnage and fishing gears/target species. In fact, this last criterion helps the most to characterize what is not included in artisanal fisheries.
A rake is a broom for outside use; a versatile horticultural implement consisting of a toothed bar fixed transversely to a handle, or tines fixed to a handle, and used to collect leaves, hay, grass, and in gardening, for loosening the soil, light weeding and to make furrows, mounds and levelling, removing dead grass from lawns, and generally for purposes performed in agriculture by the harrow. (Wikipedia. 2025 Rake (tool). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rake_(tool))
Products that have undergone the process of freeze-drying, also known as lyophilization, which is a process in which water in the form of ice under low pressure is removed from a material by sublimation. This process has found many applications for the production of high quality food and pharmaceuticals. (Nowak D, Jakubczyk E. The Freeze-Drying of Foods-The Characteristic of the Process Course and the Effect of Its Parameters on the Physical Properties of Food Materials. Foods. 2020 Oct 18;9(10):1488. doi: 10.3390/foods9101488. PMID: 33080983; PMCID: PMC7603155.)
The Ranales are an obsolete taxon of the Dicotyledons, with rank of order typified by Ranunculus (Ranunculaceae). (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranales)
Random mating means any individual has an equal chance of mating with any other individual in the population. (Junyi, Gai & Lu, JiangJie. (2013). Random Mating. 10.1016/B978-0-12-374984-0.01255-9.)
Land on which the indigenous vegetation (climax or sub-climax) is predominantly grasses, grass-like plants, forbs or shrubs that are grazed or have the potential to be grazed, and which is used as a natural ecosystem for the production of grazing livestock and wildlife. Rangelands may include natural grasslands, savannas, shrublands, many deserts, steppes, tundras, alpine communities and marshes. (Allen V.G., C. Batello, E.J. Berretta, J. Hodgson, M. Kothmann, X. Li, J. McIvor, J. Milne, C. Morris, A. Peeters and M. Sanderson (2011) An international terminology for grazing lands and grazing animals. Grass and Forage Science, 66, 2–28.)

Uncultivated land, including forest land, which produces forage suitable for livestock grazing
It is one of the domestic goat breeds raised for milk, meat and hair in Turkey. (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/299341428_DOMESTIC_ANIMAL_GENETIC_RESOURCES_IN_TURKEY_English_version_of_Turkiye_Evcil_Hayvan_Genetik_Kaynaklari)
Holotrichia or Holotricha was an order of ciliates. No longer in use as a valid taxon, but the terms "holotrich" and "holotrichous" are still applied descriptively to organisms with cilia of uniform length distributed evenly over the surface of the body. (Adapted from Wikipedia. 2025. Holotricha https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holotricha)
Note
Under current classification systems, Holotrichia is are considered as a historically recognized but currently not used order. Concept retained for legacy purposes. For the genus of beetle in the family Scarabaeidae, see "Holotrichia (Coleoptera)" <c_3644>.
